IndexFinger Introduces New HR Service on 'JigeumUri' Platform

Providing Career Experience Opportunities for Youth

Indexfinger, a software and platform development company, announced on the 15th that it has introduced an HR (Human Resources) service for youth job seekers and employers in its self-developed app 'Jigeumuri' (Now Us).

Jigeumuri is an anonymous SNS (social networking service) exclusively for teenagers, serving as a platform where students from the same neighborhood communicate through student ID and school location verification. It is similar to the university student anonymous community 'Everytime' and the office worker anonymous community 'Blind,' but adds the feature of being hyperlocal (community-based within a close range).

Through Jigeumuri's HR service, businesses seeking to hire teenagers can post job listings without any additional cost. This helps reduce the financial burden of paid services that were previously used on existing HR platforms to frequently target specific audiences.

Youth job seekers apply by filling out personal information such as their real name in an application section visible only to the business. Indexfinger carefully selects workplaces that comply with essential conditions for youth labor rights, such as working hours, wages, and labor contract preparation, aiming to break down distrust regarding hiring.

Song Junseok, CEO of Indexfinger, stated, "Career experiences gained through jobs will serve as a significant asset and an opportunity for aptitude discovery in a young person's life," adding, "Businesses are expected to resolve manpower shortages based on the creation of a regionally based job ecosystem."

He continued, "We plan to add features such as workforce and job ratings, personnel recommendations, and part-time job reviews, and continuously update the service to become a leading platform for youth recruitment."
